Pawtucket Rising, a film by Jason Caminiti

Pawtucket Rising is the unlikely story of the revitalization of the City of Pawtucket, from a flourishing mill city that fell into decline to the greatest boom in decades. A post-showing discussion will feature Caminiti; Herb Weiss, cultural affairs officer, City of Pawtucket; and Dr. Ann Galligan, associate professor in the Department of Art & Design at Northeastern University. Galligan has worked on multiple projects in partnership with the Rhode Island State Council on the Arts and was responsible for drafting a comprehensive cultural plan for Pawtucket.
